About This Home
As of June 2024Stunning midcentury home designed by Palmer + Krisel architects and built by the Alexander Construction Company in 1958. Located on a large lot in historic Sunrise Park in central Palm Springs on Orchid Tree Lane, one of the most coveted streets in the neighborhood.

Landscape design by William Kopelk of InsideOutside, Inc. features several seating areas, a pool, spa, fire pit, fruit trees, specimen plants and an outdoor shower. The master suite opens to the backyard, pool and spa, as does the large family / media room, which can possibly be used as a 4th bedroom. The home maintains several original Alexander signature architectural details, including the sloped roof, tongue-and-groove interior ceilings, clerestory windows, skylights, the original fireplace design, and floor-to-ceiling walls of glass and sliding doors that open to the large and private backyard. The property also features a covered carport, central air and heat, tile floors, automatic irrigation, outdoor lighting, a wine fridge, and generous indoor and outdoor storage areas. The large lot provides ample room for parking, lounging, entertaining, and enjoying the Palm Springs lifestyle. Blocks away from markets, the cinema, and shops.
